If you're not planning on serving burgers at your Super Bowl party, maybe it's because you needed a post to tell you, "Hey, you should serve burgers at your Super Bowl party." Here are some burger-related recipes to keep in mind for this Sunday:

• The Ultimate Homemade Sliders: Smaller burgers are easier to eat while watching the game.
• How to Make Perfect Thin and Crisp French Fries: Because you'll want fries to go with those sliders.
• Cheese Sauce for Burgers, Fries, and Chips: And you might want cheese sauce for those sliders and fries.
• Cheeseburger Dip: Hell, screw burgers in sandwich form—here's the dip-able, cheese-based version.

And this may not be the best party burger, but for an ultimate Super Bowl burger, try BBQ Addict's Ben Roethlis-BURGER.
